We originally made this because our farm-share kept bringing us copious amounts of zucchini. Now we don’t miss the noodles or the meat in our lasagna. This recipe is so delicious, and it’s healthy and lovely for your skin as well. Try it for yourself.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Chop up onion, carrot & garlic and saute on medium in olive oil. Add can of tomato when the onion is translucent. Simmer on medium low while prepping the rest.

The next step is easiest if you have a mandolin slicer. But if you don’t, just use a sharp knife and cut thin slices by hand. Cut zuccini and squash into thin (noodle like) slices. We also did our mozzarella ball on the mandolin, but again, a knife will do the job.

It goes 1 layer of zucchini and squash, follow with tomato sauce, spread around some ricotta, then a bit of mozz. It doesn’t have to be even or thick. Thin layers are better. Sprinkle a bit of salt, pepper and olive oil as you go to make sure it has nice flavor. Spread a generous amount of grated parm on top.

Pop it in the oven for 45 -55 minutes. Let it cool for 10 minutes after it comes out of the oven, if you can stop yourself from nibbling at it. Enjoy!
